Personalized care for your dog or cat - Hays

“Annabelle was just a great dog sitter for us! She responds to communication very quickly, and worked to accommodate our 'nervous pet parent' needs for our first trip away from our pup. She's warm and friendly and also has a strong pet care background. We had 2 doggie play dates before our trip so we could ensure our dog got along with hers. I will 100% use Annabelle again, and recommend her without reservation!”

About: There are 2 Dogs in the house at all times. (Kelo and Chief) They share the furniture daily and bed every night. I'm happy to treat your dog to the same luxuries that Chief and Kelso get to experience as long as they are properly trained to do so. I can also keep them in their own kennel at night if that needs to be done as well. I'm happy to work with you to make your dogs experience as easy as possible. We both know that anxiety can get the best of owners and their Pets (AKA best friends) are apart! The 2 dogs in home are a Boston Terrier and a Boxer who are super friendly outgoing and love to play boxer is very gentle. If your family members are here. Please feel free to ask questions!!! I currently am home most of the time. I do come and go but will be home if pets are home, This way, if something is needed I willl be there. Home is cleaed every day, dishes are always done, laundry and floors. Have 2 dogs in home full time have to clean regularly to make sure the house is clean and smells nice. Anyone with pets knows not hard to have a stinky house if you have dogs that are inside all the time. Sweep and scrub floors as needed. Also have capet cleaner as well if needed. Use all these items to ensure place is nice and clean and safe.

About: I’ve helped care for my family dog since 2019 and have hands-on experience house sitting for local pets over the years. Thanks to a flexible college schedule, I’m available throughout the day during regular working hours for continuous companionship, potty breaks, feeding, and walks. Your dog will be in caring, reliable hands! My daily routine is extremely open and flexible. I only have one college class a day and my weekends are completely free, leaving me with plenty of open time during standard work hours. With my own reliable car, I can easily travel to your home multiple times a day for drop-in visits, energetic walks, or extended playtimes whenever your pet needs attention. When caring for pets in your home, my priority is keeping their normal routine as smooth and stress-free as possible. Whether I’m staying overnight, stopping by for check-ins, or taking them on active neighborhood walks, I focus on attentive, personalized care. I’m comfortable managing feeding schedules, giving lots of affection, and providing regular updates so you always have total peace of mind while you're away.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of pets since before I turned 14. From the age of 14 I started to do it professionally with doing come and go pet sitting, drop in visits, and house-sitting. I worked at a boarding facility and had an internship at a veterinary clinic. I have cared for dogs, cats and all sorts of small animals. I’m certified in CPR and the Heimlich maneuver on cats and dogs. I also have the ability to train dogs and adjust to personal training standards. I’m available any time and can do over night stays if needed. I’m fully capable of adjusting to any one’s personal schedule and meet with you any time that is convenient. I can easily adjust my techniques depending on the age, health, size and ability/disability of each pet. I will not overstep boundaries of your pet and gain trust in their pace rather than at my own.

About: Hi Everyone! My name is Shayla Hammes. My services include boarding, doggy daycare, drop-in visits, and dog walking! A little about me! I currently live in Hays, KS for school. I have many years of experience with animals and will be able to help with whatever your dog may need including medication administration. My schedule is very flexible so that gives me plenty of time to spend with your dog! I live in a house with a fenced in backyard for your dogs to be able to run and play in. I will also be able to take them on a walk throughout the neighborhood. I have a three year old goldendoodle named Maverick! He does so well with other dogs and loves to have “friends” over to run around and play with! Throughout your stay you will be able to reach me at any time. I will be sure to update you with pictures daily throughout the stay! I would love to care for your fur-baby! My schedule is very flexible which gives me plenty of time to play and hang out with your fur baby! I will never accept a booking if I will be gone for more than 4 hours at a time. I have a fenced in back yard. Your dogs will be taken out and played with in my yard and walked throughout my neighborhood. It is important to let me know how your dog walks on a leash as I have a dog of my own that I may or may not take on the walk also.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple breeds of dogs and cats. I take care of friends, family and others’ pets. I love pets and love to play with pets. I currently teach so I am able to help before school, during lunch and after school. I can help as many times throughout the day if needed. I have cats at my house and we play and cuddle constantly.
